WELCOME THE YEAR OF THE EARTH OX WITH LO HEI FORTUNE BUFFET AT THE HERITAGE HOTEL MANILA

The Year of the Earth Ox symbolizes prosperity through fortitude and hard work. Celebrate this auspicious Lunar New Year at the Riviera Café from January 26 to February 9, 2009 with its “Lo Hei” Fortune Buffet Lunch/Dinner for only PhP 1,288.00++ per person.
For good luck, start off a festive Chinese New Year celebration with a shower of good fortune during the ceremonies for the traditional lion and dragon dance, coin tossing and the lighting of firecrackers at the Hotel Lobby on January 26, 2009 at 11am.


Then share a wide variety of authentic Chinese dishes teeming with Chinese symbolisms of good providence, happiness, health, youthfulness and abundance. Savor vast specialties swathed in Chinese traditions such as the Yu Sheng Salad, Tsong Tsai Fan (Special Mini Pot Rice with Chinese Sausage), Tsong Tsai Tong (Mini Pot Soup), Ho Xi Fatt Choy (Braised Dried Oyster with Black Moss and Vegetable), and Muar Chee (Glutinous Rice Ball Glazed with Grated Peanuts).


Attract positive energies and help forge stronger and more meaningful personal and business relationships with the must-try Lunar New Year Prosperity Salad Platter known as Yu Sheng Salad. Yu means "fish" but when pronounced, it also means "abundance"; and Sheng means literally "raw" but enunciated appropriately, it means "life". Thus, Yu Sheng implies "abundance of wealth and long life".


Participate in the Yu Sheng Prosperity salad ceremony and have a first hand experience of the traditional “Lo Hei!” which is Cantonese for "tossing luck" with family and friends. This ingenious dish was popularized in Singapore and Malaysia decades ago. Chopsticks are used to toss the ingredients as high in the air as you can. Make a wish and shout “Lo Hei!” for abundance and good fortune as you toss.
Bring home a pack of luck and hold your own private traditional ceremony of tossing the Yu Sheng, the Lunar New Year prosperity salad platter for only PhP 888.00++ good for four to five persons. Bigger and smaller sizes of the prosperity platter are also available.
